Description

image

Disable, remove or blacklist any biome, vanilla or modded, from an easy in-game menu.

Choose which biomes generate in the Overworld, the Nether, the End, and dimensions from mods or data packs. Each disabled biome is replaced by the closest enabled one, so terrain still blends in naturally.

No more config-file digging: search, toggle, save presets, done.

Useful for modpack makers, server owners and regular players who want to control world generation.

Available for Minecraft 1.21.1 (NeoForge 21.1+) and 1.21.11 (NeoForge 21.11+), plus Fabric with Fabric API on both. On Fabric, Mod Menu is needed to open the config screen.

Features

  • Toggle any biome in any dimension that uses the vanilla biome system
  • In-game menu with search, a tab per mod, bulk on/off and biome previews
  • Presets you can save, load and share as JSON files
  • Works on servers, and players don't need the mod to join
  • Compatible with most biome mods (see Compatibility)

Changes apply to newly generated chunks after /reload or a world reload. Existing chunks aren't touched.

Configuration

Open the menu from Mods → Biome Pick'n'Choose → Config. On a server, operators can run /biomepicknchoose config (needs the mod on the client).

Or edit config/biomepicknchoose.json directly. Unlisted biomes stay enabled:

{
  "biomes": {
    "minecraft:dark_forest": false,
    "minecraft:plains": false
  }
}

Presets use the same format, so you can drop a preset file in as the config on any loader.

Biome previews

Preview pictures are included for vanilla Minecraft biomes and for these mods:

Missing a mod? Capture your own in singleplayer:

  • /biomepick_preview capture [namespace] photographs every biome
  • /biomepick_preview capture_missing [namespace] only does the ones without a picture
  • /biomepick_preview cancel stops a capture

Pull requests with pictures for biomes that aren't included yet are appreciated!

Compatibility

Works with biome mods that use TerraBlender, Biolith, Lithostitched or Blueprint, and with data pack style biome mods. This includes Oh the Biomes We've Gone, Biomes O' Plenty, Terralith, Tectonic, Nature's Spirit, Regions Unexplored, Incendium and Stellarity.

Dimensions with their own biome source (like the Twilight Forest) aren't affected.
